I have the same ones. I tapped into the sidemarker wires for the halos(the red/black wires), and then just plugged the harness into the factory spot. When you take them apart because they leak, don't break them when you put them back together, you will be pissed because they don't sell the housings alone. Also, the bulbs that come with them aren't very bright, swap them with some silverstars and you are good to go.

Right. I can turn the projectors off/on by the factory switch in the radio bezel.

I just pulled the sidemarkers out, then spliced in a positive and a negative wire off of each side and ran them down to the lights. I will try to take pics tomorrow, we are getting a blizzard right now, so I can't go out and take them now.
